Novels of the Marvel Universe is a long-running series of prose novels licensed from Marvel Comics, published from 2010 through to 2025. The 29 volumes cover a wide range of characters and storylines, from Iron Man and Spider-Man to Doctor Strange, Wolverine, and the Fantastic Four. Some books are prose adaptations of classic comics events while others are original stories set in the Marvel universe.
The series is notable for its longevity and variety. Early volumes tie in with MCU releases such as Iron Man 2 and Captain America: First Avenger, while later entries revisit comics mythology like The Dark Phoenix Saga and Planet Hulk in novel form. Authors across the series have included both established novelists and comics writers working outside their usual medium.
Each book in the series is self-contained and can be read independently. The table below lists all 29 volumes in publication order, from Iron Man 2 in 2010 to the Fantastic Four and Wolverine entries anticipated in 2025.
